[good samaritan]

I can relate to some of what your husband feels. I have felt used by church people for years. I am skilled at multiple trades and many times I have felt that people have taken advantage of that also. I have never allowed cliques to bother me though, I have always been kind of a loner by nature. Here is the thing. You said you have kids. Sometimes we have times that the weight of things get tough, but you must press along. No offense intended at all and I don't want to add insult to injury, but sometimes as the spiritual leader you must wait on the Lord. If your husband hasn't burnt any bridges I would suggest that he continue and hold at and pray until he get an answer.

There are times where God will move you, but to quit going until something else opens up will cause an instability for you and your children that could haunt you for years to come. Church is about relationship and it is very important to connect and if your church can't satisfy that then you probably need somewhere you both can, but on the flip side you are going to have difficult times any where. I know you as a wife have probably got to be careful not to seem too challenging with your husband. Personally in my low times as a husband my wife has had difficulty communicating with me, but pray and encourage him anyway you can. My prayers go out to you.
